When a heterosexual, cisgender male is incorporated into a gender-queer, queer, female friend group burdened with the patriarchal wrongdoings experience by the other members of the friend group despite not being associated with the male majority. For a man to fall under the displacement effect, he can only be incorporated into a singular group.
Andie (she/they): I hate men
Max (they/them): speak your truth Andie!
Matt (he/him): guys I'm right here
Andie (she/they): it's ok Matt, you're part of the displacement effect.
